Exempel på hur man kan använda ANTHRACOTHERES i en mening

• Recent phylogenetic analyses suggest that the family lies close to Andrewsarchus, anthracotheres, hippopotamuses and whales, as part of Cetancodontamorpha.
• However, one study suggests that instead of anthracotheres, another pig-like group of artiodactyls, the palaeochoerids, are the true stem group of Hippopotamidae.
• Now, however, Hapalodectes and other mesonychians are thought to be related to basal artiodactyls, while the Archaeoceti are now determined to be descended from more derived artiodactyls, like Indohyus, which are related to hippopotamuses and anthracotheres.
• There are also bones of entelodonts (the so-called "giant pigs" or "hell pigs"), hornless members of the rhinoceros family, small camels, antelopes, oreodonts, anthracotheres, and several genera of horses including Mesohippus, as well as proscalopid insectivores.
• Such dispersals from Asia to Africa also were seen around the same time in other mammalian groups, including hystricognathous rodents and anthracotheres.
• Here Ronzotherium formed part of the post-grande coupure fauna alongside anthracotheres, entelodonts, and a variety of other Asian derived groups.
• However many detailed research of the dentition among ancodonts, as well as how some anthracotheres were similar to hippos in appearance, lead the current consensus where Anthracotheriidae is paraphyletic to Hippopotamidae.
• Other fossil mammals found at that locality include the hominoid Khoratpithecus, four species of rhinocerotids, two species of suids, three species of anthracotheres, a giraffid, four species of bovids, and several species of proboscideans.
